    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Alcohol is absorbed from mucous membranes of the mouth and oesophagus, from the proximal portion of the small intestine and large intestine. The rate of alcohol absorption from stomach is dependent on its concentration, presence of food and other factors. Absorption from intestines is very fast. As it is absorbed directly by the alimentary canal, there is no need of digestion within the body.
